sorry

8 1 0
                                    

A word used over a thousand times

For the shaken ones

Who were used as pawns in a dangerous game

Ties cut short

For we have been mistaken

Our shattered hearts now surrounded by a fort

In reality your halfhearted apology

Is nothing but a meaningless plea

I'm sorry—

You think I'm bluffing

I'm sorry—

I didn't mean it

Strike again

Our friendship never mends

I'm sorry, please forgive me

You say once more

But I walk away

And I don't regret not looking back

Even till this very day

The day you knew I would forever be away

The day you knew my dignity would stay

I'm sorry please forgive me—

Why did you leave me?

Me—

The one who was there

You

Were

Never

There
